PMI Delaware Valley Chapter - June 2024

I had the pleasure of working with Steve when he presented for the Project Management Institute Delaware Valley Chapter. In my role as the Director of the Leadership and Communication SIG, I found Steve to be incredibly responsive and easy to work with throughout the vetting process. He handled our many requests thoughtfully and collaboratively, showing he works well under pressure.

Steve’s listening skills stood out when members had questions, and his presentation on leadership and communication was spot-on for our group's focus. His dedication to these vital soft skills really shone through. I highly recommend Steve – he’s a true professional with great insights and practical expertise.

PMI Northern Nevada Chapter - March 2024

I’m with the local PMI chapter in Northern Nevada and we were fortunate to have Steve provide a presentation on growing your sphere of influence.

His insights are applicable to all elements of leadership and mirror teachings that I experienced in my MBA program. The real-life examples Steve provides help illustrate how and why these strategies are so important.

My biggest takeaways and observations were around the significance of growing and developing emotional intelligence, paired with utilizing active listening. Intuitively, these skills make sense. People trust you more if they feel heard and understood. However, they fall into the category of simple to understand, difficult to master.

Steve’s presentation was not only informative but also inspiring. I highly recommend attending any session led by Steve!
